Would have been nice to explore the topic of 1) virtualisation and 2) SANs and how the IOPS rates differ when using these different technologies. Any more articles planned along these lines?
Not exact, but it's along the same lines and a also a good starting point. My recent article is at this[/url] link.

Granted, capacity drops, so you can keep less backups online and they have to go to tape quicker.
Quick fix here is to negate the effect with a good 3rd party backup product or even the built in SQL Server 2008 compression 😉
